Blobs

Blobs is a tetris - like game. It is similar to the game "Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine". The objective of the game is to score points by making chains of four or more blobs of the same colour. The game consists of a Free Play mode and a Level Select mode. A level is completed when a required amount of points are scored within a given time limit.

Here are a few screens of the game:

The game is available as a free download on the Android Market for all OS versions 1.5 and above.
Search for the developer name "The_R" on the Android market.

After a couple of comments on the Android market saying the controls are bad, I decided to try to improve the controls for Blobs. To do this, I have added two new control styles for the game and decided to keep the old controls too incase anyone got used to them.

One of the two new control schemes is similar to EA's Tetris for the iPhone and the other consists of buttons to rotate and move the blobs. The instructions section describes each control type for the game.
